1100 Remington Man
36 Cal.
Well it happened to me. I had a windy day and was still hunting the woods
I was able to get up on a small buck 6 point about 30-35 yards and did not shoot him as I was looking for a mature buck.
Then later I snuck up on another deer a Mature Doe laying in its bed I snuck up from down wind to around 25 yards away.
I was so close I planed on taking her with a neck shot while she was laying down.
Took aim fired and heard fiz I looked at gun thinking it might need another cap while taking it off my shoulder and then it went BOOM sending the shot way over its head. This is the first time I have had this happen.
I did have shot opportunities every day on small immature deer but that was not what I was after, I even turned down a shot at a little doe when walking back to my truck and only 75 yards from my truck. I walked up to about 35 yards of her before she ran off.
So this season I ended up with Tag soup
Maybe I should be shooting small Deer ? the picture of trees the doe is just right of center laying down with it head up.
